Who Is Karina Manta On Dancing On Ice?

Karina Manta is a new face on the Dancing on the Ice rink for the upcoming series.

Karina stepped in for Yebin Mok after she was badly injured in rehearsals last year.

Manta is a 25-year-old professional ice skater hailing from Olympia, Washington.

The young skater was partnered with Joe Johnson from 2013 onwards.

The pair have competed in Skate America, the US International Classic, US National Championships, and the Midwestern Sectional Championships.

In 2018, Karina told her social media followers that she was bisexual.

Her partner Joe is gay, and the pair became the first openly queer team at the 2019 U.S. Figure Skating Championships.

Karina said at the time: “I think this sport is making space for new approaches, new forms of art, new types of people,

“I like to think Joe and I are both trying to keep widening the space in our own ways, alongside so many teams who are pushing our art form in a hundred beautiful ways.”

The pair also performed with Cirque du Soleil in 2019.

As well as skating, Karina has had a successful writing career, penning articles for the New York Times.

She is writing a book about her own experiences as a professional skater and body image which is set to be published this year.
